Request For Ex Parte Reexamination (Third-Party Requester)

This legal template is designed for a third-party requester who wishes to submit a Request for Ex Parte Reexamination. Ex parte reexamination is a formal process by which an interested party (the third-party requester) can request the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) to reexamine the claims of an existing patent to determine its validity.

The template would include the necessary format and language required to submit such a request. It may outline the specific details required, such as the patent number, the grounds for reexamination, and the evidence or prior art that the requester deems relevant to the reexamination. The template would also provide guidelines on how to properly draft and structure the arguments and legal analysis to support the requested reexamination.

By using this template, the third-party requester can ensure that their request for ex parte reexamination is comprehensive and meets the legal requirements of the USPTO. It serves as a helpful guide to navigate through the complex process of challenging the validity of a patent and seeking a reexamination based on relevant prior art or other grounds.
